Are you planning to move back to Denmark with your foreign spouse? Or is your child nearing their 22nd birthday and needs to apply to retain their Danish citizenship?

We’re here to guide you safely through the application process—whether it’s for family reunification, citizenship, or other related matters. We understand that navigating the rules and dealing with public authorities can feel overwhelming and time-consuming.

With years of experience, we ensure the process is as clear, efficient, and transparent as possible, so you’re in good hands from start to finish.
What Is Included?

When you purchase our case processing service, you will receive professional and reliable assistance, including:

  • A thorough, non-binding assessment to determine whether we can assist with your case. If needed, we may require a membership before reviewing your case, especially if its scope calls for it.
  • The relevant application form, along with our detailed guide, which will lead you carefully through each step of the process.
  • A thorough review and quality check of your application to ensure everything is correct and complete.
  • Evaluation of the required documentation – we will make sure nothing is missing.
  • Continuous support and answers to any questions you have throughout the application process.
  • The option to have a meeting with your legal advisor – whether in person, over the phone, or online.
  • Legal representation in dealings with Danish authorities, ensuring clear and correct communication.
  • Assistance in meeting relevant deadlines – both during the process and after a decision is made, if needed.
Initial and Non-Binding Assessment

We begin by reviewing the circumstances of your case. You’ll do this by completing our contact form, where we ask specific questions tailored to the assistance you need.

Once you submit the form, we will automatically receive a notification and get back to you with our assessment as soon as possible. You are also welcome to contact our legal advisory service by phone during our office hours or email us if you’d like an initial consultation about your case.

If we determine that we can assist you, we will send an introductory email with a payment link. Once the payment is processed, you will receive an email with the next steps, the application form, and guidance materials in either Danish or English. From there, your case processing begins.

Review of Your Case

Once you have completed the application to the best of your ability and with the support of our guidance materials, we ask you to send us a draft along with the necessary documentation for review.

We will thoroughly review the materials and generally provide feedback via email. If you find it helpful, we can arrange a meeting – either in person, online, or by phone – where we can go through parts of the application or documentation together to ensure everything is correct and complete.

The most important thing is that you feel comfortable throughout the process and have the opportunity to ask any questions you may have.

Final Steps

Depending on the type of case, we can act as your representative with Danish authorities, and for certain applications, we can submit it on your behalf. We are also happy to guide you on how to submit the application yourself – whether from abroad or from Denmark.

Once the authorities have processed your case, you will receive the decision either directly or through us if we are acting as your representative.

Whether it’s Danish citizenship or family reunification, we do our best to ensure you feel well-prepared and supported throughout the entire process. Our legal department is ready to help and guide you from start to finish.

While we can never guarantee a specific outcome, we always work to provide you with the best possible foundation for a successful case.

Our legal department will assess whether we can take on your case. In most cases, we can.

If your case is particularly complex or falls under an area of expertise that we do not offer, we will inform you as soon as possible.

Please note that certain applications require payment of separate fees to Danish authorities, representations, or organizations related to the submission or processing of your application. These fees are paid directly to third parties and are not associated with Danes Worldwide.
